15. Service Week - 3/14/21
Please join us Sunday March 14th at 11am ET for
How Has the Past Shaped the Cherokee Today?
By Freeman Owle, Cherokee Storyteller
Description: An exploration of a life on the Qualla Boundary.
Freeman Owle: "I was born in the old Cherokee Indian Hospital in 1946 to Lloyd and Betty Bradley Owle from the Birdtown Community. When I was 7 years old I was taken to be enrolled in the BIA Indian School in Birdtown.
My graduation from the Cherokee Indian High School was in 1966. I then attended Gardner Webb College, Western Carolina University. I planned to be a biologist but ended up being a teacher instead.I have taught everything from Kindergarten
to university level Classes. My love for history and the Cherokee people has brought me to lecture across the USA on Cherokee series, history and culture. I feel it is better to learn about the Cherokee from someone who really is a
Cherokee, rather than someone who has decided to become a Cherokee."

We will be starting another book reading and discussion. The book is entitled: On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder. It is available at our NC library, online ordering and a free pdf version is available at: https://www.pdfdrive.com/on-tyranny-twenty-lessons-from-the-twentieth-century-e184197413.html. We envision it will take a week for us to get the book and a week to read enough of the book to start discussion, so we hope to have our first discussion around March 20th. If you want to participate in this read/discuss, please let us know and also your thoughts about the timing, scheduling and what our topics should be included in the first discussion.

Alessandro Piccini, I had not heard of him and I will guess you have not either. Another wonderful composer that has drifted. This one work is so interesting. Surely there were more. We must be content with this wonderful video and recording by The Lute Duo.
Note the various techniques used by the players.
Would you like another Piano Concerto.
It is quite a comparison, the Romantic and the Classical.
A joke for the day: A loyal UU Fellowship member was driving down the street in a sweat because he had an important meeting and couldn't find a parking place. Looking up to heaven he said, "God take pity on me. If you find me a parking place I will convert and start going to a Christian church every Sunday.” Miraculously, a parking place appeared.
The UU looked up again and said, "Never mind, I found one."
